This is probably a really nooby question, but how to people sync music to their GS3? My phone won't connect to Kies, and when I copy the songs over to my phone the songs restore to their default info, so I cannot rename my music or organize my albums...
I just drag n drop. Ensure your "tags" are accurate as *most* players use tags to organise music.
Otherwise use a player that allows organisation by folder structure (eg poweramp)

Likewise drag and drop and Power Amp Pro .

I just drag and drop too. The player I'm using is PowerAmp Unlocked.

With my X10i, i got use to using Media Go.
Arranges folders etc on the SDCard under a folder caused Music.
Obviousley i copied this filde from my SDCard onto my S2 Sdcard.
Im still using Media Go for now, but have to manually refresh/rescan in Poweramp eveytime.
Anyone else having this issue.
Back on topic. Whats people using to transfer music? I like to make sure they have covers etc, and to continue putting them into the SdCard/Music foldr, into relevant artists foldr etc.
I'm not sure about the relevant artists function but I use doubleTwist because it pulls the playlists from itunes and syncs all the music with your phone in a folder called music on your sd card if you want. I think if you wanna use poweramp you have to manually re-scan your library every time new music is added, not sure about that though.
Hi,
I have total recall working on phone and it stores call conversations on phone, the problem is the music player also adds them in available songs
is there any way to restrict music player to look under specific folders only for songs?
or, if there is anyway I Total Recall can store files that cannot be seen by Music app (media scanner)?
To select a certain music folder yourll need a non-stock music player from the market like PowerAmp or something like that.Stock players dont give you much choice.My ROM has a call recorder but it goes where it goes so not much to say there sorry.
Ubermusic supports folder playing;-)

I wanted to ask the community if they could recommend an app for al my .mp3 tracks. Something that would organize my tracks, or allow me to do so, and possibly display cover art.
Free apps that are great are:
Zimly*
WinAmp
DoubleTwist
Paid apps that are awesome are:
PowerAmp*
PlayerPro
* = my choice of that group
What ROM are you on? HTC music is nice, it's what I use. I know that there are better music apps, but HTC works well. I used IDTag to make sure all the tag information and it shows up fine.
Poweramp

HTC music (for listening and having lockscreen controls)
Album art grabber (for album art)

Try HTC music or Google music? Those are already on your phone (well, google music might not be).
Otherwise...

Thanks for the replies. I am currently using HTC music, but I would drag and drop a folder of music on the flash card. The folder is from the same music group, but the artists are different. In turn I have a mess of tracks, when I would originally like to have it show the folder, and the option to play the entire contents of the folder.

not sure if I understood right but if you want drag and drop UI like how you would put music on a ipod with itunes then definitely try out DoubleTwist. It was a Windows client that emulates itunes.

I have once used an Apple product; Ipod...and then gave it back the next week. I'll give it a shot if it makes my .mp3 experience easier.
Hi, I would like to know if there is any way I can manage and edit playlists and songs info on my galaxy s2. I have tried using Samsung Kies but it dosen't have the ability to edit song info and playlists that are created with the stock music player in my phone. Recently after connecting my phone to the computer, songs added in my playlist have been disappearing and songs info are removed(like the ablum art,artist info etc etc), I used apps downloaded from the market to edit the info of the songs . So I would like to be able to save my playlist and song info on my computer somehow. My phone is also rooted but I don't think it is the cause of this bug.

You could actually. I'm using PowerAMP Player. You could also try it.
Thanks for the suggestion. However, do you think it would be possible to create a m3u playlist on my phone and import it into the stock music player.

That I do not know because when I create a playlist, I stick to whatever music player I am using.

Try creating playlists in Windows Media Player & then use it to sync with your phone. Works for Cowon Android media players, might work with the SGS2. This assumes you're using the stock music app, obviously; most other music apps allow you to create playlists (Neutron doesn't, but you can create Poweramp playlists & point Neutron to those to get them working).
Edit - This method works with Cowon D2/D3, might be worth a try if you're going to keep using the stock music app (would be easier to buy another app from Google Play tho).
"Player Pro" is another music app you can create playlists. It's a grate music player as well. once you create a playlist most music players can use it (according to my knowledge)
Hey all,
Im trying to find a way to organize my songs somehow.
I would like to separate my music into to categories or folders, one for rock and one for country and then be able to pick either country or rock from my stock Htc music player.
I can/have hooked my phone up to my comp, created 2 folders and organized my songs accordingly. The problem is when I start up my music player the player does not recognize the folders and just gives me a complete list of songs on my phone.
Sometimes I just want to listen to rock and other times, chill out to some country. If I had the ability to pick a gene/folder within my music player, then I could just shuffle all songs within that folder only.
I have not been able to figure out how to make the phone/music player recognize folders
Can anyone steer me in the right direction?
Thank you,

I do believe you can set up playlists and just pick that from the music player, otherwise find a music player that does support them.

I have tons of songs for each gen. It would not be worth it to hand pick the songs, way to time consuming. Its quicker to just skip songs, that is what I'm doing now, Hoping for a much better solution.
Thanks for the input

Sounds like that might work, Im going to give it a try
Thanks
Although not folder sorted, separation by Genre is sort of built into the MP3 standard, you just have to add the appropriate Genre tag to the files. There are multiple programs for Windows/Mac/Linux that can edit MP3 tags on single or multiple files at once. Then you just need a music player that can sort and play by Genre, like Winamp, PowerAmp, Fusion, N7, or most full-featured players.
You can also use an app like this to make playlists based off of what songs are in what folder.
